Adobe is now making the new Flash Player in version in version 9.0.115.0 available for downlaod.
The current version of the software is intended to support H.264 video compression and the HE-AAC audio codec. In addition, the player is also intended to be fully compatible with Apple’s current Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard operating system. Under Mac OS X, videos can now also be played in full screen.
Anyone who calls a processor with up to four cores their own experiences faster playback of bitmap and vector data, videos and filters, according to Adobe. For bitmap graphics, a new algorithm for scaling is also used. The result is intended to be better display quality and performance when rendering the images.
Users who have problems with Flash content in connection with the Firefox or Opera browser should also install the updaten. Bug fixes in this area are part of the current version.
The free software can be downloaded from the Adobe site.
